I am watching a video on CNN… yet I can’t embed it anywhere.  Why not?  Given that CNN is part of Time Warner, and Time Warner has spend billions on AOL, Quigo, Advertising.com, LightningCast, etc., I cannot understand why Time Warner would not open up their massive content archive and let their extensive ad platforms - hum, remember Platform A? - cross-polinate with one another to generate more revenues?

LightningCast of note is supposedly some big ad video network, which AOL bought and bundled into Advertising.com, which is now central to Platform A… llegedly.

Just wondering.

Sometimes, I think that being part of a big media would be great because you can do all of these things to unleash value, but then I realize that being independent allows us to do so much, and not have these silos divide a company’s growth and execution.

Just saying.
